Biofilm formation of Burkholderia pseudomallei strains ATS2021, the causative strain in an outbreak of 4 cases, 2 of them fatal, in the United States in 2021, and K96243 under multiple test conditions. Biofilm formation of both strains was assessed by crystal violet staining as measured by OD600. A) One day at room temperature; B) 1 day at 37°C; C) 2 days at room temperature; D) 2 days at 37°C. Error bars represent the SEs from mean values determined from 3 separate assays. p values determined by linear mixed effects model. M9G, M9 + glucose; M9GC, 0.2% glucose to M9 and casamino acids; OD600, optical density at 600 nm.
